This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on November 17, 2011 at 2:55 pm
Data Storage Corporation
(DSC) has been selected by Diaz Foods to provide its SafeData
HA solution.
DSC’s solution ensures business continuity for this food
distributor, helping it to provide ongoing services to its more than 5,000
customers in 25 states even during a system failure.
Diaz Foods joins a growing number of DSC customers in the food industry, some
of which include: Pratts Wholesale Limited, Sunflower Farmers Markets, Tony’s
Fine Foods, and UNFI (United Natural Foods). All these clients leverage the
software applications offered by Retalix to simplify processes, optimize assets
and drive growth through their supply chain from warehouse to checkout.
"We decided to go with the HA
service because as a company we cannot afford any downtime," Lisa
Willingham, systems administrator at Diaz Foods explained. "It is like the insurance policy you hope you
never have to use. While Diaz Foods is not a small company, we still have a
small IT staff. It is comforting knowing that we have a backup plan and a
strong partner to be there for us when the unthinkable happens. In addition to
the data recovery aspects of the service, a bonus is that we can switch to our
‘backup’ AS/400 and keep our business running while we do system maintenance
and PTFs. I have found everyone I have worked with at Data Storage Corporation
to be extremely knowledgeable and super easy and fun to work with."
"We welcome Diaz Foods on board as a SafeData
HA customer," said Matthew Grosso, executive vice president at DSC.
"Like other food industry companies
that rely on Retalix software applications to run their business, we are able
to come in and help ensure that Diaz Foods’ data, applications and systems will
be available when and where they need them and give them the peace of mind that
they will be able to continue their business operations if a system failure of
any type occurs."
